The honest comparison. We show you where we win, where competitors win, and exactly what you pay for each.
60–95% cheaper
Aegis Firma starts at $79/mo. Vanta, Drata, Hyperproof, and OneTrust all start at $8,000–$25,000+ per year and require annual contracts. We are month-to-month.
Only EU AI Act-native platform
We built Aegis Firma after the EU AI Act was finalised. Competitors bolt on "AI governance" to existing SOC 2 frameworks. We start from the AI Act and expand outward.
Minutes to value, not months
Self-serve signup, no demo required, no implementation team. Most customers have their first compliance gap report in under 15 minutes. Competitors average 3–6 months to deploy.
